“I...” The question came as a deep surprise to Senna, who didn’t expect such a question at all.
Yet it was a sensible question, but one that had strangely eluded her mind completely.
“Right?” Zeras asked once more as Senna looked him in the eye, before directing her gaze away as she took a deep breath in.
“There are two answers to that...” She said as Zeras furrowed his eyebrows yet remained quiet to listen to both answers.
“If I’m talking like one who is in a business relationship with you, the business situation where there was a deal in us giving you a prisoner of ours in exchange for you helping us rank up my race, then I will say, the deal is still incomplete from your side...” “What?” Zeras’ eyes dilated on hearing that as Senna nodded expressionlessly.
“The deal was for you to rank us up. Ranking up our clan, which is currently at the third grade, to the second grade or 1st grade, will require us having an undying realm expert in our clan. You were the one envisioned to reach the undying realm.
The Prodigies War event is nothing more than a single step on your path which gives a higher insurance of you being able to reach the Undying realm in the future which therefore also corresponds with us getting ranked up higher, the original deal...” She explained as Zera’s eyes narrowed.
“So is the deal complete? No. It isn’t. It would only be once you reach the Undying realm expert, by which then you will be recognized as being one of us. And therefore ranked up...” Senna said as Zeras gave a half nod before reclining back on his seat.
“As I said before, there are two answers, and that is the first one...” Senna reminded as Zeras sat upright back.
“So what is the second answer..” “The second answer is that there was no deal at all once you arrived on the Giaran’s planet.” Senna said as Zeras raised an eyebrow...
“What does that mean...” “I mean the deal that was made was between you and the three elders that picked you up from lower Earth.
And they had allowed you specifically to the area.
Without that pool, you would have failed to fuse with all your genes, because your soul energy would have been immediately drained before you could even begin expanding.
You were only able to perform those feats of swallowing all the systems due to your soul energy that was being revitalized by countless times.
So you really do owe your current strength, and also half your health, to them if you think about it..] The system explained lengthily as Zeras turned his attention back to Senna.
“I’m sorry for even mentioning the deal at all. I just never thought of it, the way you guys did...” He said with a guilty expression as Senna hit him on his shoulder.
“Don’t be an idiot. I’m glad you never forgot it. And when did you even become a man of your words? I knew you went all out in the mission, partly because you didn’t want to break your promise to us.
Tell me, have you always been like that? Someone who simply refuses to break his promises to others? You don’t look like one...” Senna chuckled as Zeras smiled, yet his brain processed her question deeply.
[It is really true though, Zeras. I know you went all out in the mission because of the quest and the rewards, but faintly, it was also because you didn’t want to break your promise to Senna of you easily passing the tests.
You wanted to keep your words, and you fought so hard to do it, and succeeded in the end.
But there is a problem, when did you start caring about something as mundane as promises?” The system asked as Zeras furrowed his eyebrows in confusion before they relaxed once more...
“I am slowly changing... once more...”
